1 in 3 teenagers in the EU don't reach basic maths skills. PISA measures them at 15, a few years after the jump from primary to secondary school. That jump is where ACHIEVE4EDU looks for what already works.
Swipe, and follow for evidence that changes lives. #education#achieve4edu
A priority in the evaluation of organizations’ programs and companies. Beyond assessing the situation, what matters most today is improving it, to identify the links between improvements or declines in outcomes and the actions that have been implemented. daily27.info/2026/10/13/outc…
Journalist Ida B. Wells documented and exposed how the press published “unreliable and doctored reports of lynchings” to portray these acts as understandable or justified.

Journalists who attack us victims and boost their ratings in the short term are actually harming themselves in the medium and long term. The program L'Entrellat has been removed from RTVE’s lineup, and according to OJD data, Diario de la Educación has lost 72% of its readership:
Whether we like it or not, #Sociology analyzes reality, without confusing scientific analysis with ideologies, which serve a different purpose. The BBC and CNN interviewed Marta Soler and Mar Joanpere. Reading them, today's figures come as no surprise: elpais.com/espana/2026-10-09…
Our warmest congratulations to Georg Nagel and the entire University of Würzburg community, where Mar Joanpere and I had the privilege of teaching Education!

“When supply falls and demand rises, prices rise,” Dra Soler en #BBCWorldService. Spain built 2.7M protected homes since 1980; the current public stock is 318,000. Long-term rental supply was 1% in 2019–21; today 0.69%. Demand is rising, from family homes to homes for individuals
I am very proud to have been interviewed by one of the world’s leading media outlets, the BBC, about one of the main issues surrounding the upcoming Spanish elections: housing. The BBC has published the interview here (at 1:18): bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0pf3cl… #sociology #socialsciences

Most “experts” are saying that the mobilisations will generate votes for the left. After May ’68, the Gaullists increased from 200 to 293 seats. After 15M, the Popular Party grew from 154 to 186. It is better to choose excellent experts in excellent media outlets like the BBC

Science cannot prevent torrential rain, but it can help reduce its consequences. During the DANA floods, 18 schools implemented actions based on scientific evidence of social impact.

Scientific articles with social impact are increasingly valued. This one has already received 6,473 views. Scientific Evidence is essential, but within it, Scientific Evidence of Social Impact (SESI) is the evidence that is already contributing to improving our lives.
In light of the new DANA risk, this scientific article, based on work conducted with 18 schools in Valencia’s DANA, offers specific actions. It was recognized by the Ministry of Science for its scientific work on the 2024 DANA. #DANA #Education #Valencia mdpi.com/2071-1050/17/4/1542

CNN turns to brilliant #URV sociologist Mar Joanpere to analyse the housing crisis. Yet some Catalan and Spanish media try to silence her—after she became the first person to win a sexual harassment case against a Spanish university and as coordinator of #MeTooUniversity.

The @nytimes itself acknowledges that its survey of 37 experts “is not a scientific poll.” Those who actually improve outcomes rely on actions that have demonstrated improvements.

Screen use at school: Singapore (3,1 h/day), Estonia (2,8 h/day), Spain (2,1 h/day).
Cross-country comparisons do not establish causality, but they clearly challenge the claim that more screen use necessarily means lower PISA performance.
